. In the contest between Senator
Butler and Governor Tillman, the
Senator will show himself the bet

Much to the -dissatisfaction of
the anti papers the reform papers
have, generally speaking, severely
condemned Senator Irby for his
recent performance in Columbia.
The Reformers are quick to resent
a betrayal of confidence as the
antis of this State have found and
as the antis in national politics
will soon learn.
It is a point in Senator Irby's
favor that he did not get drunk
enough during his recent "jag'' to
call on General Hugh Legare Far
ley or Captain James H. Tillman
with his guns.-Oconee News.
It is also a point in his favor
that he did not get drunk on
South Carolina dispensary liquor,
this is also a point in favor of the
liquor.
Senator Butler bas made two
speeches recently in the United
States Senate, one on last Wednes
day, the other on Friday, in the

were well received, and are in line '
with the preponderance of senti

2,500 people were drowned by the

several millions.
TIE BBfETALISTS.
Their Labors Completed and They
[Have Gone Home.
ST. LOUIS, Oct. 7.-The conven
tion of southern and western
bimetalists which has been in
session here for the past three
days has adjourned.
Most of the time being con
sumed in making speeches, there
is littloto report in the nature of
results, beyond the adoption of
the report of a committee on res
olutions.
In the discussion which arose
upon the report, two minority re
ports were presented, but the op
position was finally overcome and
the report, as it came from the
hands of the majority, was adopted.
The committee on resolutions
headed by Governor Tillman of
South Carolina, who, as ohairmen,
presented the following resolutions
which were adopted :
FOR FREE AND UNLIMITED COINAGE.
Resolved, That we demand the
free and unlimited coinage of sil
ver at the established ratio of 16
to 1, giving to such coin equal
legal tender powers with gold.
Second-That we are unalterably
opposed to * he repeal of the so
called Sherman law, except the
passage of a law providing for the
free and unlimited coinage
of silver at the established ratio of
16 to 1.
Third-That eur representatives
in congress instruct the chief
executive to issue a call for an
early convention of all nations
interested in and favorable to the
free coinage of silver at the ratio
of 16 to 1 for the purpose of estab
lishing closer commercial and
financial relations with them.
Fourth-That the total amount
of gold now in existence or capable
of production under the stimulus
of its increased value is totally
inadequate to supply the demands
of the world for money, and the
adoption of the single gold stand
ard will result in universal bank
ruptcy and ruin, and we declare
that such action on the part of our
government would be a flagrant
violation of the constitution of the
United States, in that it would
impair all existing contracts and
doubie the obligations of all
debtors, and we {declare it to be
the duty of all patriotic citizens to
resist in the courts and at th J
ballot box, its adoption and en
forcement, if adopted.
' AGAINST A BOND ISSUE.
Fifth-That weare opposed to
the further issue of government
bonds, and declare that the real
purpose of the proposed issue of
bonds is the perpetuation of the
national banking system to which
we are unalterably opposed, for
the reason that it enables a few
selfish individuals at their pleasure
to contract or expand the volume
of the currency to the great injury
of the masses ; and ve demand a
financial system which will prevent
congestion of money in the finan
cial centers of the east.
Sixth-That we urge the speedy
improvement by the national
government of all the great water
ways, and particularly those which
drain the vast agricultural region
of the south and west, and we in
vite the active co-operation of the
great mercantile interest in secur
ing the creation of more direct
routes to the occean, in order that
our products may reach the
markets of the world at a minim
um cost.
Seventh-Th at we send greetings
to the representatives and senators
in congress who have stood by
their pledges made before election
and are contending for the rights
and interests of the people who
elected them. We thank them in
the name of American liberty, and
we hold in undying contempt those
who seek to betray us and make
this country a financial dependency
of Great Britain.
B. R. TILLMAN. Chairman
In the Senate on last Friday
Senator Morgan, of Alabama, in
troduced a bill providing "that
any State or municipality may
collect the taxes on property seized
by order of tne United States
Courts in the same ?nannur as if
the property remained in the pos
session of the person or corporation
from whom the taxes were due."
This is the right talk, and if the
bill should pass will enable the
State of South Carolina to collect
her railroad tax without more
trouble.

TILLMAN-BUTLEE.
I The Senatorial Contest To -Ab
sorb All Oilier Issues.
I Newt and Courier.
COLUMBIA, S. C., October 8-In
I some way the impression seems to
have become general that the.
I Senatorial contest in this State is
to be decided by popular vote.
[There has been considerable talk
of euch a thing, and from time
time it has been suggested by
various political leaders, but the
constitution of the Democratic
party now in force does not make
any such provission. Secretary
Tompkins waa asked about the
matter yesterday, and said that
he did not know how the idea
became general, but that the con
stitution made no such provision
The idea very probably origina
ted out of the action ot the Demo
eratic executive committee prior
to the election of August, 1892
The friends of Governor Tillman
were then paving the way for his
Senatorial candidacy, and realizing
tne importance of having him be
fore the people in a campaign in
{defence of the Reform party, a
?resolution was introduced and
[passed by which candidates for
' the United States Senate were re
! quired to go before the people
just as candidates for State offices
! have for the last two campaigns.
The frit nds of Governor Tillman
say that they do not propose to
have him side-tracked, and that if
he is to be a candidate for the
United States Senate, as now seems
tobe a certainty, they want him to
[go before the people and make one
o' his vigorous campaigns. Thc
Reformers aro perhaps, more
appreciative of the fact that Gov
ernor Tillman is^their best leader
than anyone else. They realize
that he above all m-n can keep
the Reform party together, if it i*
to be kept together. He is about
the only man who can keep up
the spirit which has bien shown
in the two last campaigns, and,
whether or not intentional, the
best ono to keep up the spirit of
antagonism between the agricultu
ral and city populations.
Governor Tillman not .long ago
was talking about the approaching
campaign and some of tho in
cidents of it, and said that, while
we was very sorry for it, he saw no
diminution in the feeling of the
people, and that he expected the
approaching campaign to be ai
exoiting RB those that have pre
ceded, but that he hoped that it
would be relieved of any hostility
or bitterness.
The fight>ill have to be made
the election of members of the
General Assembly, and there is
every reason to expect that the
question of a preference for Till
man or Butler for the United
States Senate will have precedence
over any other. While the ques
tion of a Constitutional Conven
tion, of the dispensary, Alliance
principles and such other things
will necessarilly enter iuto the
'discussion, the great question wil
be whether candidates are favor
j able to Tillman or Butler for the
United States Senate.
At present there is not very
much chance of any other candi
dates entering the race for
Senatorial honors, although there
is some talk among the ultra
?traigh touts against Sen ' fr Butler's
conservative policy in appoint
ments and it may lead to a third
candidate, although the chances
at this time are not at all favor
able to such action.
Atfpresent a great deal depends
! upvn the new Democratic execu
tive committee, which was elected
I last September. This of indicating
its policy in regard to the Third
j Party, Alliance and other impor
tant questions which are now
coming up. It will probably meet
j about the first of next year and
is pretty sure to have to consider
the Third Party problem.

The automatic bobbin winder winds all sizes
of thread on the bobbin as easily as a spool of
thread is wound, without care or attention on
tba part of the operator, except to keep the
treadle moving. Owing to tlie machine having
what ls termed a tight and looae wheel, the
bobbin can ba wound without running the
working patts of the machine. Thia ' is quita
an advantage, aa lt does not necessitate the re
moving of the' gooda from underneath the
presser foot, nor even unthreading tho ma
chine.
The needle ia snort and straight, thus lnsur
iag great strength ; lt ls also self-setting, re
quiring no care on the part of the operator.
The pleasure ou tho sewing foot is adj os table,
and when the foot ls raised to remove the work
from the machine, lt brings into play the au
tomatic tension release. This takes the ten
sion from the thread, and the goods can be re
moved from the machino without bending the
needle or breaking the thread. Every operator
on old style machin?e will appreciate this
point.
Eaoh machine is furnished with the follow

Oil can filled with oU, 12 needles, a bobbins,
